As many as 22 jumpers along with their families and friends participated in the event. “I was scared and almost backed out. But I am so happy I actually did it. It was an amazing experience, nothing like I’ve ever done before. What’s even better is the cause I did it for. I’m glad I was able to give to a noble cause that may help save a child’s life,” said first time jumper Rajbir Kaur Bainiwal.

Talking about the event, Sikh Relief chairman Balbir Singh Bains said: “The fundraiser in the UK has been running successfully for a few years now. When the team heard about Akashpreet’s story they were so moved they wanted to organize something to raise money for his treatment. The treatment for Akashpreet will be ongoing for a minimum of six months and possibly lasting 2 to 3 years. He is the only son of his parents and they are desperate for him to recover and be well again. And we, with the help of our fantastic volunteers, will do everything to make that happen.”
